Do yourself a favor and take your rifle apart and clean it real good inside.
There have been chips left inside all of my Italian guns that I have bought
new. My last 1866 I bought new this year had a lot of brass chips left
inside. I take apart every gun I buy and inspect it before firing. Overly
causous on my part I guess.
